Wheels
●
Av
oid running the vehicle on tyres that are
more than 6 years old. If you have no alterna-
tive, you should drive slowly and with extra
care at all times.
● If wheel trims are fitted after the car is pur-
ch
ased, ensure that there is an adequate flow
of air for cooling the brake system. For the sake of the environment
Old tyres must be disposed of according to
the l a
ws in the country concerned. Note
● A S
EAT Service Centre should be consulted
to find out whether wheels or tyres of differ-
ent sizes to those originally fitted by SEAT
can be fitted, and to find out about the com-
binations allowed between the front axle
(axle 1) and the rear axle (axle 2).
● Never mount used tyres if you are not sure
of their
“previous history”.
● For technical reasons, it is not generally
pos
sible to use the wheels from other vehi-
cles. In some cases, this may also be true for
the same model of wheel. Wheel bolts
The wheel
bolts
ar
e matched to the rims.
When installing different wheels (for instance
alloy wheels or wheels with winter tyres) it is
important to use the correct wheel bolts with the right length and correctly shaped bolt
hea
ds. This ensures that wheels are fitted se-
curely and that the brake system functions
correctly.
The wheel bolts must be clean and turn easi-
ly.
A special adapter is required to turn the anti-
theft wheel bolts* ›››

Tyre monitoring systems Introduction WARNING
Unsuitable handling of the wheels and tyres
m a
y lead to sudden tyre pressure losses, to
tread separation or even to a blow-out.
● Check tyre pressures regularly and ensure
they ar
e maintained at the pressures indica-
ted. Tyre pressure that is too low could cause
overheating, resulting in tread detachment or
even burst tyres.
● Tyre pressure should be that indicated on
the label
when the tyres are cold at all times
››› page 303.
● Regularly check the cold inflation pressure
of the ty
res. If necessary, change the tyre
pressure of the vehicle tyres while they are
cold. ●
Re
gularly check your tyres for damage and
wear.
● Never exceed the maximum permitted
speed or lo
ads specified for the type of tyre
fitted on your vehicle. For the sake of the environment
Under-inflated tyres lead to increased fuel
c on
sumption and tyre wear. Note
● Driv in
g for the first time with new tyres at a
high speed can cause them to slightly ex-
pand, which could then produce an air pres-
sure warning.
● Only replace used tyres with those author-
ised b
y SEAT for the corresponding type vehi-
cle.
● Do not only rely on the tyre monitoring sys-
tem. R
egularly check your tyres to ensure
that the tyre pressure is correct and that the
tyres are not damaged due to puncture, cuts,
tears and impacts/dents. Remove objects
from the tyres only when they have not
pierced the tyres. 295

Tyre monitoring indicator If a light appears
The pressure in one or more tyres has
clearly reduced in comparison to the
tyre pressure set by the driver or the
tyre has structural damage.
Additionally, an audible warning can be heard and a text
message can be seen on the instrument panel display.
Stop! Reduce speed immediately! Stop the vehicle
safely as soon as possible. Avoid sudden manoeuvres
and braking! Check all tyres and pressures. Replace any
damaged tyres. If flashing
System malfunction
The control lamp flashes for approximately one minute
and then lights up permanently.
If tyre pressure is correct, switch the ignition off and on
again. If the control lamp remains lit up, the tyre moni-
toring indicator can be calibrated. Have the system
checked by a specialised workshop.
Several warning and control lamps light up
f
or a f
ew seconds when the ignition is switch-
ed on while the function is verified. They will
switch off after a few seconds. WARNING
When the tyres are inflated at different pres-
s ur
es or at a pressure that is too low then a
tyre may be damaged resulting in a loss of control of the vehicle and a serious or fatal
ac
c
ident.
● If the warning lamp lights
up, stop im-
mediately and check the tyres.
● If the tyres are inflated at different pres-
sur
es or if a tyre pressure is too low, this will
increase tyre wear, negatively affecting vehi-
cle stability and increasing braking distan-
ces.
● If tyres are inflated at different pressures or
a tyr
e pressure is too low, a tyre may be dam-
aged and burst resulting in a loss of control
of the vehicle.
● The driver is responsible for ensuring that
al
l of the vehicle tyres are correctly inflated
to the right pressure. The recommended tyre
pressure is indicated on the label
››› page 303.
● The tyre monitoring system can only oper-
ate c
orrectly if all of the tyres are inflated to
the correct pressure when cold.
● Driving with tyres at the wrong pressure
can d
amage them and result in an accident.
Ensure that the tyre pressures of all the tyres
correspond to the vehicle load.
● Before starting a journey, always inflate
tyr
es to the correct pressure.
● Tyres with insufficient pressure are subjec-
ted t
o more flexing. Due to this, the tyre
could become excessively hot, causing tread
separation and also tyre blow-out.
● With an overloaded vehicle at high speed,
the tyr
es can overheat and burst resulting in
a loss of vehicle control. ●
Ty
re pressures which are too high or too
low reduce the useful life of the tyre, affect-
ing vehicle performance.
● If a tyre has not been punctured and it does
not h
ave to be changed immediately, drive to
the nearest specialised workshop at a moder-
ate speed and have the tyre checked and in-
flated to the correct pressure. WARNING
Observe the safety warnings ›
›
› in Warning
and c ontr
ol lamps on page 107. Note
● If e
xcessively low tyre pressure is detected
with the ignition on, an audible warning will
sound. In the event that there is a fault in the
system, an audible warning will sound.
● Driving on dirt tracks for a long period of
time or drivin
g in a sporty style can tempora-
rily deactivate the TPMS. The control lamp
shows a fault, but disappears when road con-
ditions or the driving style change. 296

Tyre monitoring indicator Fig. 227
Instrument panel: warning of loss of
ty r
e pressure. The tyre monitor indicator compares wheel
r
ev
olutions and, with this information, the
tread of each wheel using the ABS sensors. If
the rolling circumference of one or more
wheels has changed, the tyre monitoring in-
dicator will indicate this on the instrument
panel through a warning lamp and a warning
to the driver ››› Fig. 227. When only one spe-
cific tyre is affected, its position within the
vehicle will be indicated.
Loss of pressure: Check left
tyre pressure! Wheel tread change
The wheel tr
ead changes when:
● Tyre pressure is manually changed
● Tyre pressure is insufficient
● Tyre structure is damaged
● The vehicle is unbalanced because of a
loa
d
● The wheels on an axle are subject to a
heav
ier load (e.g. with a heavy load).
● The vehicle is fitted with snow chains
● The temporary spare wheel is fitted
● The wheel on one axle is changed
There m
ay be a delay in the reaction of the
tyre monitoring indicator or it may not in-
dicate anything under certain circumstances
(e.g. sporty driving, snow-covered or un-
paved roads, or when driving with snow
chains).
Calibrating the tyre monitoring indica-
tor After changing the tyre pressure or replacing
one or mor
e wheel
s, the tyre monitoring indi- cator must be recalibrated. Do the same, for
ex
ample, when the front and rear wheels are
swapped.
● Switch the ignition on.
● Save the new tyre pressure in the Easy Con-
nect sy
stem1)
by using the button and the
Set up function button
››
›
page 26.
When driving, the system self-calibrates the
tyre pressure provided by the driver and the
wheels fitted. After a long journey with varied
speeds the programmed values are collected
and monitored.
With the wheels under very heavy loads, the
tyre pressure must be increased to the total
recommended tyre pressure before the cali-
bration ››› page 303. Note
● The ty r
e monitoring indicator does not
function when there is a fault in the ESC or
ABS ››› page 173.
● An erroneous indication may be given when
sno
w chains are in use because they increase
the tread of the wheel. 1)
In vehicles that are not equipped with the Easy
C onnect
system, the switch for adjusting tyre pres-
sure is located in the centre console next to the haz-
ard warning lights. 297

Temporary spare wheel Gener a
l information Fig. 228
Compact temporary spare wheel:
r ai
sed floor panel. The temporary spare wheel has been de-
s
igned t
o be used for short periods of time.
Have the tyres checked and replaced as soon
as possible at a SEAT Official Service or at a
specialised workshop.
Please note the following restrictions when
using the compact temporary spare wheel.
The compact temporary spare wheel is de-
signed specifically for this model. For this
reason, do not use a temporary spare wheel
from a different type of vehicle. Removing the temporary spare wheel
– Lift and hold up the floor panel to remove
the tempor
ary spare wheel.
– Turn the thumb wheel anti-clockwise
››
› Fig. 228.
– Take out the temporary spare wheel.
Chain
s
For technical reasons, snow chains must not
be used on the temporary spare wheel.
If you have a puncture on one of the front
wheels when using snow chains, fit the tem-
porary spare wheel in place of one of the rear
wheels. Fit the snow chains on the rear wheel
that you have removed and replace the punc-
tured front wheel with this wheel. WARNING
● Af t
er fitting the temporary spare wheel,
check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
Failure to do so may cause an accident. The
tyre pressures are listed on the inside of the
fuel tank flap.
● Do not drive at over 80 km/h (50 mph)
when the tempor
ary spare wheel is fitted on
the vehicle: risk of accident!
● Never travel more than 200 km using a tem-
porar
y spare wheel.
● Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking and
fa
st cornering: risk of accident! ●
Nev er u
se more than one temporary spare
wheel at the same time, risk of accident.
● No other type of tyre (normal summer or
wint
er tyre) may be fitted on the compact
temporary spare wheel rim.
● If you are driving using the spare wheel,
the AC
C system could automatically switch
off during the journey. Switch off the system
when starting off. Extraction of the spare wheel in vehi-

Winter service
Wint
er tyres –
Winter tyres must be fitted on al
l four
wheels.
– Only use winter tyres that are approved for
your
vehicle. –
Ple
ase note that the maximum permissible
speed for winter tyres may be lower than
for summer tyres.
– Also note that winter tyres are no longer ef-
fectiv
e when the tread is worn down.
– After fitting the wheels you must always
chec
k the tyre pressures. The correct tyre
pressures are listed on the sticker on the
inside of the fuel tank flap ››› page 292.
In winter road conditions winter tyres will
considerably improve vehicle handling. The
design of summer tyres (width, rubber com-
pound, tread pattern) gives less grip on ice
and snow. This applies particularly to vehi-
cles equipped with wide section tyres or with
high speed tyres (code letters H, V or Y on
the sidewall).
Only use winter tyres of the correct type ap-
proved for your vehicle. The sizes of these
tyres are specified in the vehicle's docu-
ments (e.g. EC Certificate of Conformity or
COC 1)
). The vehicle documentation varies de-
pending on the country of residence. See al-
so ››› page 293.
Winter tyres lose a great deal of their proper-
ties when the tread is worn down to a depth
of 4 mm. The performance of winter tyres is also se-
ver
ely impaired by ageing, even if the tread is
still much deeper than 4 mm.
Winter tyres are subject to the following max-
imum speed limits according to speed rating
code letter: ›››
Speed rating
code letter
››› page 293Maximum speed limit
Q160 km/h (100 mph)
S180 km/h (112 mph)
T190 km/h (118 mph)
H210 km/h (130 mph)
V240 km/h (149 mph) (please note
relevant restrictions)
W270 km/h (168 mph)
Y300 km/h (186 mph) Vehicles capable of exceeding these speeds
mu
s
t have an appropriate sticker attached so
that it is visible to the driver. Suitable stickers
are available from the SEAT Official Service
and specialised workshop. Please note the
regulations to this effect in your country.
“All-weather” tyres can also be used instead
of winter tyres. »1)

Trailer mode Tr
ailer weights Trailer weight
The tr
ai
ler weights and drawbar loads ap-
proved are selected in intensive trials accord-
ing to precisely defined criteria. The ap-
proved trailer weights are valid for vehicles in
the EU for maximum speeds of 80 km/h (50
mph) (in certain circumstances up to 100
km/h (62 mph)). The figures may be different
in other countries. All data in the official vehi-
cle documentation takes precedence over
these data at all times ››› .
Dr a
wbar loads
The maximum permitted drawbar load on the
ball joint of the towing bracket must not ex-
ceed 80 kg.
In the interest of road safety, we recommend
that you always tow approaching the maxi-
mum drawbar load. The response of the trail-
er on the road will be poor, if the drawbar
load is too small.
If the maximum permissible drawbar load
cannot be met (e.g. with small, empty and
light-weight single axle trailers or tandem
axle trailers with a wheelbase of less than 1
metre), a minimum of 4% of the actual trailer
weight is legally required for the drawbar
load. WARNING
● For s
afety reasons, you should not drive at
speeds above 80 km/h (50 mph) when towing
a trailer. This also applies in countries where
higher speeds are permitted.
● Never exceed the maximum trailer weights
or the dra
wbar load. If the permissible axle
load or the permissible total weight is excee-
ded, the driving characteristics of the vehicle
may change, leading to accidents, injuries
and damage to the vehicle. Wheels
Ty
re pressure, snow chains, wheel
bolts Tyre pressures
The s
tic
ker with the tyre pressure values can
be found on the inside of the fuel tank flap.
The tyre pressure values given there are for
cold tyres. The slightly raised pressures of
warm tyres must not be reduced. ››› The pressure for win
t
er tyres is 0.2 bar
(2.9 psi / 20 kPa) higher than that of summer
tyres.
Snow chains
Snow chains may be fitted only to the front
wheels, and only for the following tyres:
215/60 R16Chains with links of maximum 15 mm
215/55 R17Chains with links of maximum 15 mm
215/50 R18Chains with links of maximum 15 mm
Other dimensions do not allow chains Wheel bolts
Af
t
er the wheels have been changed, the
tightening torque of the wheel bolts should
be checked as soon as possible with a torque
wrench ››› . The tightening torque for steel
and al lo
y wheels is 140 Nm. WARNING
● Chec k
the tyre pressure at least once per
month. Checking the tyre pressure is very im-
portant. If the tyre pressure is too high or too
low, there is an increased danger of accidents
- particularly at high speeds.
● If the tightening torque of the wheel bolts
is
too low, they could loosen while the vehi-
cle is in motion. Risk of accident! If the tight-
ening torque is too high, the wheel bolts and
threads can be damaged. Note
We recommend that you ask your Technical
Ser v
ice for information about appropriate
wheel, tyre and snow chain size. 303
